Usually, a large horizontal force will be generated to the pier in the construction process, which may induce significant influence on the pier‘s safety, especially in the case of the bridges with high piers and long span. Some cracks ermerged in the foot part of a pier in the construction stage and a horizontal force was believed to have been load on it, hence its reliability was douted.The pier was simulated with virtual laminated element program, and its mechanical performance under a horizontal force was calculated with both geometrical and material nonlinearity are considerd, thus its whole loading and failure process was illustrated and the pier’s safety was assessed.

A large horizontal force will be generated to the pier when the movable die carrier walks to the next span, especially for the high-pier bridges. thus a horizontal deflection will be produced as well as cracks developed. With solid degenerated virtual laminated element program, considering both geometrical and material nonlinearity, the mechanical performance of the pier under a horizontal force on the top of the pier is simulated and illustrated, and the cracks emerged at the bottom part of a high pier in the process of the movable die carrier walking to the next span is analyzed. The results show that when the cracks emerged, the stress of the bars and the stress of the concrete in the compression zone is quite small, hence the safety of the bridges in the construction stage is confirmed.

Accurate simulation of construction process of continuous rigid frame bridge is a foundation to make a bridge built accurately. Based on the suit iteration method, this paper used MIDAS to built a 3D finite elements model, the internal force and deformation results of each construction stage was obtained. This study provided a good theoretical reference for the control of long-span continuous rigid frame bridge construction..

Large-span V structure tied arch bridge structure system is complex. In order to make the actual state of the bridge into the ideal state of maximum close to the design, we must make real-time monitoring in the key parts of the structure, and adjust to the design of the data by analysis calculated, to ensure the safety and reliability of arch bridge in the course of construction and into stress after the completed bridge. Combined with the construction monitoring of the main Xinglong Bridge on Si River, this paper introduces the main bridge construction process measurement a preliminary study on the large span V configuration basket tied arch bridge construction monitoring technology. Based on the construction monitoring of Xinglong Bridge on Si River, this paper introduces the main contents and methods of monitoring point location, monitoring control of construction process, and discussed the construction monitoring technology of long-span X-style tied arch bridge V structure.

Unexpected defects of concrete in a completed bored pile can arise during the construction stage. Therefore, post-construction testing of bored pile concrete is an important part of the design and construction process. The Cross-hole Sonic Logging (CSL) method has been the most widely used to examine the concrete quality. This method requires some access tubes pre-installed inside bored piles prior to concreting; the required quantity of access tubes has been pointed out in few literatures and also ruled in the national standard of Vietnam (TCVN 9395:2012). However, theoretical bases aiming to decide the required quantity of access tubes have not been given yet. A probability approach is proposed in this paper aiming to determine the essential quantity of access tubes, which depend not only on pile diameters, magnitude of defects, but also on the technical characteristics of CSL equipment. Keywords: access tubes; bored piles; CSL method; defects; inspection probability.

A long-span cable-stayed arch bridge is a new form of bridge structure that combines features of cable-stayed bridges with characteristics of arch bridges. In the present study, we derived a practical calculation method for the lateral destabilization critical loading of cable-stayed arch bridges during the construction process based the energy principle. The validity of the method was verified with an example. The calculation method provides a quick and efficient way to evaluate the lateral stability of a cable-stayed arch bridge and a concrete filled steel tubular arch bridge during the construction process.

With RMT-150C rock testing machine and AEWIN E1.86 DISP acoustic emission system applied, the acoustic emission test was accomplished with two kinds of rock samples including marble and granite under uniaxial compression. Cyclic loading and continuous loading were used through the experiment, and the mechanical performance and acoustic emission (AE) characteristics were obtained during the process of rock progressive failure. Details related to the relationship between amount of AE and stress-strain was given in this paper. A comparison between marble and granite was made as well following the general AE law, on the basis of which, the failure mechanism of rock mass was investigated. Finally, some conclusions can be summarized as follows:(1) AE activity features are different with stress state variation in rock failure process;(2) loading patterns make a direct impact on the failure process thereby affecting AE activities;(3)AE activities are various basing on the different types of rocks, structures and failure modes.

The design and construction of a long-span, seismic isolated office building located in Tokyo and completed in October 2003, meets the needs of a sustainable urban environment. The 6-story building is 20 m × 80 m and uses a large-scale “trussed cage” structure, the upper part of which is supported on six base isolators on independent columns, creating an expansive area at ground level. The building’s seismic design uses artificial earthquake input movement taking into account the soft soil of the site and the frequency of Japan’s earthquakes. We detail the structural system and design concept, construction process, and health monitoring in the section that follow.
